Abstract：The flow inside an annular jet pump was investigated numerically by Fluent based on finite volume method and Realizable k-ε turbulent model, and the reliability of calculations was examined and validated. From the flow field of the jet pump, the expansion and mixing of two streams in the annular jet pump exist in both throat pipe and diffuser. The development of jet flow and wall pressure distribution under different length of the throat pipe was discussed and the effect of throat length on performance and efficiency of annular jet pump was also compared and analyzed. The results show that the throat length has some influence on the expanding of jet flow inside the throat, as well as the performance and efficiency of annular jet pump. The longer throat length, the better expanding and mixability of jet, but over-long throat length will result in more friction loss. According to the principle of best efficiency, the range of throat length is =2.17～2.89, and when the throat length is 2.69 times of throat diameter, the efficiency achieves its maximum value of 35.6％.
